For several years I¹ve bumped along making the best of having a Mac desktop
G5 and a ThinkPad portable. I do marketing research for some PC clients, and
it is Really Bad Form to show up with a Mac notebook, even though I have
been burning for one. My last PB was a Wallstreet.
Then I got a Palm Treo 650 with Cingular.
Now, I am working within a collaborative group for many projects, and
Outlook meeting notices are flying around everywhere.
My old Now Up to Date and Contacts software can¹t (or won¹t ) cope, and I
just have to simplify all this stuff.
I finally bit the bullet and set up my email accounts on Outlook 2003 on the
PC, and I¹m about to disable my Now software and begin synchronizing
everything on MS and Palm platforms.
What is the best way to fold Entourage into all this. The Palm (Not the
Windows platform) synchs beautifully with Outlook. I would love to be able
to keep using the Now calendars because they are so much better than
anything in Office, but I¹m going to get used to Office for simplicity.
OR!
Should I go with Palm desktop on both sides?
Hope this is fun and that someone has some good ideas. I¹m having problems
even figuring out the best way to synchronize Entourage and Outlook. I¹m
about to decide I can¹t. Since I have my own domains, I¹ve set up all
programs to copy outbound mail to ³[email protected].² And of course the
servers synchronized incoming with no help from me. Is there a better way?
Thanks!
Best,
